Black Beauty strikes again... Raves from the Public..

Black Beauty strikes again..Inspired from car lovers ..
  It seems every time I pull Beauty out of my garage , it attracts attention.. From the neighbors , the kids and other onlookers.. Well the so called loud exhaust and the pitch black clear coat with Red accent flames off the hood is very eye catching. I cant go anywhere without people slowing to take a glance or people speeding up to get a look, or people just plain out gawking when I'm at the stop lights...Its a awesome feeling, I mean My Nissan 4x4 gets looks and compliments , but nothing like my Retro looking 70's inspired Dodge Challenger.. Just today , while shopping at Stater Bro's An old man said what a beautiful car,, looks so similar to the original but beefier , or more muscular.. I agree ,at first I thought is was too beefy and too modern looking, but after a while , one day.. haha.. I realized this is a awesome looking ride,,plus I pamper the sucker like crazy.. always garaged and always being wiped down with detailing products.. I treat like a queen... oh well. Back to the car. A few weeks back at one of my co workers reup ceremony - Derek's... We went to Dicks last resort on the gas lamp quarter of down town.. I was so early that i jumped the fence like a illegal alien and the owner said, " What the hell are you doing jumping my fence and coming into my place before opening time.. What audacity I have,, huh? Yup I'm fearless or just a dumb ass,, haha. oh well finally the party arrives and we have fun,, After leaving the place another old man , actually went up to my side passenger window and said he had the same exact 70's challenger back in the day.. I didn't want to tell him this was new retro looking car , because the smile on his face was priceless.. right? Why ruin a poor eyesight old man of memories of his youth.. I mean the stares and smiles and thumbs up i get is alot like how a rock star feels.. I mean, I'm driving a legendary car from the Movie fast and furious five ,, and to this day that movie will always signify , why I bought this challenger.. The looks is muscular , yet elegant and different looking than the Camaro or Mustang.. and its bigger and beefier looking.. Hey those two other muscle cars may win on a track,, But I like my chances on a short drag strip of a highway.. The challenger gets into gear fast and moves quickly.. But it has blind spots and at times , I miss being higher up in a truck. But the speed and performance , handling and luxury comforts , ultimately wins the daily driver test. I used love driving my truck.,. But with my high performance dream machine.. The truck feels rough, slow and workmanlike.. Don't get me wrong I still love my truck.. But The challenger has spoiled me with great looks , great feelings , great sounds fron the sound system and of course a new attitude , for better or worse.. I love my Black Beauty , it has rejuvenated my attitude and outlook on life.. Its a dream car I always wanted.. But wasn't sure what muscle car to get? If the Trans am - Firebird was still around I would get that.. But since its not unless you want to get body kits and stick on a camaro.. Why? I decided to go MOPAR , OR NO CAR..!! Since St Patric day 2012,, My ride has provided so much fun , like the Otay Ranch lesson from so called white brother Bud, to the CHP look that made him stand still like a Zombie.. to the looks and gawks from Car wash places and Detail shops I drive by in San Diego Or Lake Elsinore.. Whatever the case,, I'm getting a head rush every time I start up beauty and take her for a spin.. Lets just say my daily trips to SD , is SO much more fun and enjoyable.. I cant believe I owned a freaking square ass looking Saturn.. Such a ugly car.. and 4 cylinders.. well that's why I blew out 2 transmissions and went over 300,000 miles before it gave up.. Now I plan to put many more miles on my Dream Car,, and keep it going .. Because That's it unless I win the lottery. I will not buy another Muscle car.. As for the people who love seeing me drive my ride around The Temecula Valley area and San Diego.. It must be fun to watch beauty zoom by or cruise by.. If you haven't seen her yet.. You will if you drive the 15 freeway or 805 on the weekends.. My ride not only is my dream car, but it has become the daily driver with show room finish and looks. Its kind of tiring to maintain the look. But I'm game.. until I'm too old.. ? Then I will use the car washes and detail shops.. But for now.. I'm enjoying the rebirth of Muscle cars during this time.. because I'm sure , it will put on the shelves and become classics owned by a few selective car owners.. Its a state of mind and almost a obligation to own and maintain a classic or retro looking Muscle Car and I plan to uphold that high standard.. So enjoy the roads and when you see me pass you by , or cruise by you.. smile and wave.. Because I'm keeping American Muscle Loud and Proud,, and  looking good!! THE SOURCE PRODUCTIONS @ 2012
